A "Type A" medicated article is a feed
product containing a concentrated drug, diluted with a feed carrier
substance. Medicated feeds are administered to animals for
prevention, mitigation, or treatment of disease or for growth
promotion and feed efficiency. This collection requests information
regarding adherence to regultoary controls to ensure the quality
control of these products. Respondents are manufacturers of human
and veterinary drugs that produce Type A articles as well as
commercial feed mills.
This is an extension of a
currently approved collection and reflects a decrease in the number
of respondents. This adjustment is explained in the agency's
supporting statement, Part A, at question 15.
